Eight Days Till Blog-A-Thon 2006

The 29th of July is only 8 days away. Blogging for 24 hours straight is beginning to be a reality and, not to mention, it still sounds like fun and always worthwhile. A gentle reminder: I am blogging for one of my favorite charities Feed the Children. Please check out their website if you would like to see exactly what it is they do. Remember, they not only help children in places such as Kenya but they feed the poor here in the USA as well. They were there for the victims of Katrina and other tragic events. So please, if you can,Sponsor Me! for this amazing organization.

I will take donations starting from $1.00 but if you can make a pledge for $25 or more I will send you a FREE copy of our cookbook, Come and Dine. Recipes (some are family secrets) are from Indonesia, Holland, Australia and US. Here's a sample:

This-Is-Salad? Salad

6 to 8 baby spinach
1 small to 1/2 regular red onion, thinly sliced, then halved
10 to 15 cherry tomatoes
1 oz. honey roasted sliced almonds
6 oz. Yoplait fat free very vanilla yogurt
4 oz. Yoplait fat free very cherry yogurt
2 snack-size boxes of "Golden and Cherries" by Sun Maid

Put all ingredients, except yogurt, into a large bowl and toss. Mix very vanilla, and very cherry yogurt together in a small bowl. Wait to add to salad until time to serve. When time to serve, add yogurt and toss well. Keep everything well chilled.

Enjoy
